To confront the enemy, it's necessary to know the enemy -- and the enemy's strategies and tactics. Refusing to learn these guarantees defeat. ---Rsk
True, but to study the enemy you must study HIS tactics and HIS maneuvers. Not create brand new ones and study them. You must study existing malware, pull it apart, debug it, decompile it, see what makes it tick. Then extrapolate and try to predict the "bad guy's" next move based upon his past behavior. How can we study what the real bad guys are if we create something completely different than what the bad guys would ever think of?
